TUN Plate Number Meaning: Moba, Ekiti
The TUN plate number is registered in Moba Local Government Area, Ekiti. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
Moba, administered from Otun, issues TUN. About 146,496 people were recorded there in 2006 within 199 km², some 736 for every square kilometre. The letters are issued once and stay on the plate for the life of the registration. Nothing after them on the plate names anywhere at all.

What the TUN Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so TUN places the paperwork in Moba. It does not follow the car afterwards: a vehicle sold across state lines keeps its plate until it is re-registered, which is why a TUN plate away from Ekiti is a question for the seller rather than a finding in itself.
The letters also say nothing about the holder, the model or the history of the vehicle. Colours and special series are a separate system, explained on the code hub; what the car itself has been through — auction lots, damage, mileage at sale — is recorded against its VIN and travels with the car even when the plate changes.
Questions about the TUN plate number
What does the TUN plate number mean?
TUN is the registration code of Moba Local Government Area in Ekiti. A vehicle wearing it was registered there; the three digits after the letters are its serial inside that LGA, and the last two letters are the series.
Which state is a TUN plate number from?
Ekiti. The code identifies the local government area — Moba — and the state is printed on the plate in words above the number.
